Average Rating: 
Rating: - Good price, but my old copper bottom Revere Ware was better
It works, but here is what I don't like; The whistle was nice an loud the first time it was used, but got progressively weaker and weaker. Finally I could hardly hear it. I ended up having to repair it. That required removing a screw in an awkward place, removing the whistle mechanism, streching out the spring that holds it against the spout, bending down a flange on the spring clip that holds the whistle against the spout, and reassembling it all. I should not have to mess with repairing a brand new teapot. The lever that opens the spout is very uncomfortable to use, and not anywhere as easy as my old Revereware kettle. The thing heats water, (how could it NOT?) and after I repaired it, it whistles. The lever I will live with. All in all, it is worth eight dollars. No more, no less. I wish I had another Revereware copper bottom tea kettle with the nice little finger operated whistle. The round handle on this one does NOT stay cool, and requires a potholder. I wish it lived up to the hype I read here before I bought it. It is nice and shiny, has a removable lid, and all that, so buy one if you are very very good with hand tools, you might need them.
Rating: - A Great Tea Kettle for a Great Price
After searching high and low for a functional yet attactive stainless steel tea kettle, I've finally found the one! Initially, I wasn't sold on the stainless steel look, but after trying some enameled tea kettles that tended to rust with regular use (and fearing for all the paint I must be ingesting as I watched the inside coating wear away) I decided that stainless steel was probably my best bet. This kettle looks great, and I don't have to worry about leaving water in it. It also has a large enough opening to allow for periodic cleaning, a must on my list (larger hands may find the opening a tad too small.) The kettle has a nice 2.5 quart capacity. It boils water quickly, and it doesn't look bulky on my stove. At first, I thought the whistle sounded a bit muted, but I soon decided that this was a good thing. It's loud enough to hear, but it doesn't make you leap out of your skin. The flip-up spout is nice if you're pouring multiple cups of tea, but I find flipping it closed again a bit awkward. All in all, though, I couldn't be more pleased. This kettle is functional, attactive, and, with it's 18/10 weight stainless steel, built to last.
Rating: - Not impressed
Looks like I might have to do some repair on the whistler...- just doesn't work right. Also the lever on the handle that opens the pour spout/whistler is very stiff to operate. Glad it was on sale but I should have looked elsewhere, too.
